• Only use Jumbo Frame settings when operating in a Gigabit environment
where all other clients have Jumbo Frame Setting enabled.
• Enabling DHCP automatically turns on UPnP— see the Service Support Screen.
• If you are only using the WAN port, we suggest that you disable IP Sharing
Mode. This will result in higher throughput.
• A correct DNS setting is vital to networks services, such as SMTP and NTP.
• To use the Link Aggregation with "802.3ad selected" feature, please make sure
the networking equipment on the other end of Ethernet cable also supports
802.3ad protocol.
Most Fast Ethernet (10/100) Switches/Routers do not support Jumbo Frame and you will not
be able to connect to your N7700 after Jumbo Frame is turned on. If this happens, turn off the
N4100PRO. Then, insert USB disk with factory reset utility included and power on the
N4100PRO. Till the system power on complete then it will bring your system settings back to
factory default.
